About this blog

I got the idea of starting a blog about emergency preparedness after some colleagues asked me to send them the list of items that could be useful when you need to leave your house quickly due to a riot or natural disaster.
During my holidays I spend most of my time outdoors, either mountaineering or sailing; both these activities are great to try out techniques you learn on survival guides.

I have been working abroad for over 2 years now, met lots of people with different backgrounds and learned a lot from their experiences surviving difficult situations.

Most of these articles apply to any country.

Hope you find useful information here and feel free to add your comments or questions.
